Looking at Andrew & Nellie's marriage cert for full info about Nellie, in case of further clues
6th Oct 1913, at St Joseph's RC Chapel, Helensburgh.
Andrew Donachie, irondriller, bachelor, 19.
Address: 30 Second Avenue, Radnor Park, Clydebank.
Parents: James Donachie, coachman. Elizabeth Donachie, ms McDonald, deceased.
Nellie Rielly, domestic servant (general), spinster, 22.
Address: 9 Somerville Street, Clydebank.
Parents: Patrick Rielly, dock labourer, deceased. Mary Rielly, ms Murphy, deceased.
Witnesses: John A Coyle, Jean Connolly.
So apparently born 1891, although her death cert implies 1886.
Unless she lied - maybe trying to sound younger, as Andrew was only 19.
There was a Nellie Reilly, 20, living in Bridgeton, Lanarkshire in 1911.
BUT that's not her.
That Nellie was with her parents James (47) and Jane (48) , and several siblings.
